My baby doesn't have much tolerance for the paper flash cards.  But she loves the Little Reader lessons with the picture and the audio sounds that match the word.  The multisensory approach is so much more stimulating for her, and I guess it would be, wouldn't it?

I do LR flash cards three times a day.  We do at least 4 categories (animals, body parts, fruit, actions) and there are between 6-10 words in each category.  So she sees the same 24 words 3x/day.  I don't really care if it's not exactly the Doman way to a T.   I mean, what's the point in doing it that way if my baby finds it too painful to sit still for and therefore doesn't learn anything, or worse grows an aversion to it.  

The right thing for your baby is for you to find a daily program that works for her and entertains her.  

For us, it's using LR.  Now learning is a lot more fun (don't get me wrong, sometimes she turns away from the computer and is done with it) and she actually is learning and wanting to learn more through out the day.  Not so much by wanting to do more LR but, for instance, she points to things now all the time.  I guess she wants me to tell her what they are or somehow explain them to her.

I bought Little Reader a few weeks ago (and LM) but didn't really use it until now - I was kind of holding out for the curriculum.  We love it!  It's so nice to just click and go.  I'm still showing ybcr dvds and sporadically showing the cards, but I can see me using LR more frequently.

I guess I was just bent on following the rules (showing it for 2 months before switching - as I have no idea if he really knows the words)...but as KL and many others have said before - the only rule is "have fun".  If his dumptruck is more fun than watching the video, then that's what we do at the moment.

Well, I have already mentioned this in another post, but I guess I have to mention it in the testimonials too...I am very happy to say that I am seeing results in just 2 weeks of starting the LR curriculum. My little one is 9-1/2 months old and he is able to vocalize words like geen, buoo, ello (green, blue, yellow) within a week of showing LR. Around the second week, he saw a dog coming and called it a "dog." This particular dog has several names like juju, bobo, blackie, jackie etc...but he picked up the right word and called it a "dog" !! I am simply amazed...And yesterday, came "Catth" (cat) out of his mouth!! Its so sweet to hear him speak all these words...In fact, he has not said any word in our mother tongue as yet...!!!    I am very very happy with LR. Its definitely a great tool to be owned...    

A BIG thanks to BrillKids for coming out with such a wonderful product and the superb curriculum. I am glad I bumped into it at the right time!

My 16 months old girl started YBCR 2.5 months ago and LR 3 months ago, she reads in spanish and english over 70 words. I am looking forward to keep teaching her both language to read.

I thought will be way difficult than this but she does great , she has fun with it , she brings to me the flashcards or books to me to read to her and she makes the computer sign everyday for playing with LR. It is amazing!!

Finally my 2 year old is reading flashcards and potato chip bags. He is recognizing the letters A-O, after that we need help, and now he can count to 5. I am so excited that he can actually read a few words now. So now I have got our books out and started a book a day to see how many words he can get. This is what I do; I photo copy or print our books (these books are the ones that I have made) and highlight the words he gets or the letters. I place them in a folder and at the end of the week tally them all up, and then we review with LR and our visual flashcards, I then record them in the free home school planner.

Thank you for LR!

   



(patreiche)

I have both LR & LM and would like to assure everyone that the curriculum is excellent. I know when buying everything for a child things get expensive. If you can afford this for your child it is well worth the price. My grandson was born six weeks premature and with Your Baby Can Read and Little Reader he is catching up to his age level. His vocabulary is excellent and he is learning to count to five. His speech is beginning to catch up with where it should be. I think he would have progressed further but my computer was broken for a while. The major improvement that I notice with him is his vocabulary. I attribute this largely to Little Reader curriculum, although Your Baby Can Read is also responsible. My grandson is a child who is very active, so teaching him anything is extremely difficult. 

I know in trying to create lessons for him, it is very time consuming. Creating these lessons to the quality that LR & LM have been created is costly. They have put a lot time into making the lessons not only educational but also entertaining so our cute little ones will pay attention. They also have incorporated several different teaching methods into both of these programs making them versatile for which ever method you decide to follow. I think different children learn different ways and they have tried to make this versatile for everyone. The latest versions are incredible in my opinion.

   



NARELLE (Nbailey)

Loving mum of Ethan Melbourne, Australia

My son said "Mum" at 5 months and "Dad" at 7 months.  He said his first real words (pointed to object when saying) "duck" and "dog" at 8 months.  He is now 13 months and has reached 28 words that we understand.  We have used parts of the Doman method, Your Baby Can Read and of course Little Reader/Math for some time now. 

He has really started to say more words now that we are following the curriculum! A big thanks to Brill Kids for providing this. I have really noticed a rapid onset of words since starting this. This week he has added the words "head" and "arm" to his vocabulary.  He has seen these words many times before, but I believe that the way the words are presented on Little reader via word flash, multisensory and picture flash has made all the difference.

   



(zoe22)

I'm trying not to get too excited incase it's just mere coincidence! I know we're not to test our babies and all, but something happened this morning. i was going to show her the YBCR  flash cards, while sorting them out, i laid the words 'tiger' and i think 'wave' side by side, at the same time the DVD was on, and the word tiger was called out, i noticed she kind of moved towards the tiger card i laid down. i immediately thought it was just coincidental, but i couldn't resist the temptation to find out! so i put two different words together some distance from where she was,and called one out and she kept crawling to the right one, she must have got it right 9 out of ten times. 

i also noticed she started smiling when the word 'smile' comes up on little reader, that could just mean she now understands what smile means and not actually able to read the word 'cause it's actually pronounced on LR.

i'm so excited and i'm even more motivated now to keep teaching her. I'm not going to test her again though- i hope i can resist the temptation!besides, i don't want to be dissapointed if i find out it was all just a coincidence! whichever way, thanks to all at brillkids for enlightening me to teaching her.

Texas, USA

At 7 months, my baby can recognize colors, numbers 1-20 dots (his mom didn't teach him 0 yet), and 10-15 words at least (haven't tried all of them). 

He also recognized Panda when I showed him picture cards....he hadn't seen this card before, I had just shown him the animal video's on LR. He crawls and doesn't want to sit in one place, so I have to crawl with him, show him the dot cards and ask him to recognize the number. He just pats on the right number and crawls away, leaving me amused and proud as ever.

He completes nursery rhymes- when I stop short of one word, he makes a sound and then I have to continue with the rhyme- that is really cute.   He enjoys music- sings and dances (sways his body and taps his left foot to music). Loves giving 'high fives'. He also says 'AUM' (has been saying it for 3 months now). 

   



CHANDA (Jekayda)
Mother of  17 month old Ashlyn, Test Auditor, QC
WI, USA

While I can not say that we are as far along as other children her age, I had a pleasant surprise yesterday.  

I got LR lite in March (9months) and then upgraded in May. (Until the curriculum came out I was a little disorganized)And while my SO agrees with Ashlyn's early learning he does not really help as he hates computers, but he encourages me to keep going with the time I have.
Since I started the program Ashlyn has shown great interest in the computer.  Now if she sees me on the computer she will crawl over stand up and peek over the top of the table to look at the computer to see if her "words" are on. She bounces like crazy when I open the program, and then she cries when I put her down after its done.  

Yesterday while showing the course she clapped when the word for clap came on and waved when the video for waving came on.  Although she has responded to us by clapping when we say clap and waving this is the first time she responded to the LR this way.  I was so happy.     Also since we started she has started ?Babbling 24/7.  She was always a little quiet but now she is making sounds like crazy.  I'm sure she is saying a certain phrase but I can't understand it yet.  Hopefully soon.  
I wish I could spend more time working with her, I feel she would be so much farther ahead. 

   



(floong)

I started showing my daughter paper flashcards, including a packet of "Little Einstein" cards when she was 12 months. She showed some interest but it wasn't consistent. I subscribed the Little Reader was 14 months and has been showing it for a month. It was quick and most of the time she paid attention to the computer screen (though she lost interest about the colours).

To our surprise, one day she picked out "chicken" and "rooster" from her Little Eistein cards (she had learned "chicken" from LR before) and looked from one card to another (the two figures were awfully similar and the only difference was the colour of the figure). Since that day, she could pick out the correct card when we asked for "chicken" or "rooster". I think LR did help in teaching babies words and figures. 

   



(Prettypips)

I have a 16 month old. She loves Little reader a lot. She likes it so much that she just wants to go on and on. She can see 10-15 categories/playlists (80-90 words) at a time. She never wants to stop watching. She cries when I turn it off. 

   



(PY)

It tell you their experience teaching special kids to read.
The LR curriculum has tought my daugher to read in spanish and english, My daughter is 18 months old, she started with LR five months ago. She can read in spanish(I'm spanish speaker) and english too.

LR works like this: It shoes you slides, with words, pictures, life images and voice(help to guide the kids with pronunciation). 

Besides all this you can also download from this web other downloads form other's member.We have several languages you can choose from, and english too of course.

I hope it helps I have experience working with autistic children, they have so many talent and good memory, they love music too.

   



(xensun)

I would like to thank Brillkids for making LM and LR upgrades.

My son is doing well with it. I already see a difference when teaching my son the math. Everything is already preset to teach a set of numbers each day and the pictures are flashed much faster. This is great because my son actually sits through his math lesson. My son had no interest before. He would look away when ever I would show him flash cards. With the original LM, he would squirm off my lap. But now the lesson is so fast, he doesn't have time to be uninterested. He sits through his lessons. 

My son always enjoyed LR but I think he likes the prepared lessons also. They are quick, some action pictures, variety of picture examples with each word. I also like the different voice used to read the words and describe the pictures. 

This is definitely worth the money. My son loves it and when it comes to young children, its not always easy to find to teach them and hold their attention. But I must say with this wonderful program and this web site forum, I have learned a lot.

I want to thanks Brillkids and all the caring parent for making this site so GREAT. 

   



Margaret (chloe)
Mother of a 2-year-old girl, housewife
Indonesia

Hi, Im a mother of  2 year-old girl, her name is Chloe. She was diagnosed with Athetoid Cerebral Palsy. She's so cute and so adorable, eventhough she has limitation. By the way, we live in Indonesia.

I have been doing flash card with her since she is 6 months old, firstly we started with mandarin flash card who got it from Glenn Doman, SIngapore. after 1 year old of age, She was being assessed in Evan THomas Institute, Philadelphia, thus they gave us a lot of Intellectual Program, such as :

  1. 20 categories of single words (@5 cards) English, Indonesia and Mandarin, and also 
  2. Bits of Intelligence with words 10 cats (@10cards) 
  3. We have used Little Reader since one year ago 
  4. She has to read NEW books everyday 

Now, she has been seeing up to 10.000 words and up to 2500 Bits, 250 homemade books of 8 year old level (refer to Glenn Doman's intellectual program).

These few days are just like miracle happen to us. Suddenly, she can use FC (Facilitator Communicator) (it's a piece of paper and there alphabet from A-Z written on it, and she can type words, sentences, with this facilitator, it is also the part of Glenn Domans' intellectual program). She started to write down answers when I questioned her, the one that was suprising me is when I asked her what is the highest mountain in the Alps? (after she read books about Alps), she began to write M-O-N-T B-L-A-N-C. im soooooooo touched by her, after 1,5 years of hardworking..
And she began to answer everything about the books or what books she want to read, like yesterday she want to read about Buddhism, radio, Camera. She is a fast reader, dont need to spell each word, I just need to open it fast, she just look and that's IT! but when I ask her question, she began to amaze me, how SMART she is..

I want to share with every mom, who have brain injured or well kids..they are absolutely amazing..just dont give up in every little thing you do!! It's really worth it..

I have seen so many of them (brain injured children) who can read very fast and they are soooo amazing!! They have potential like any other well kids.. Just sometimes we are not sure or we dont know...

   



NATALIE (Natmum)
Mother of 19 month old,

I just started little reader with my 18 month old yesterday- I have been teaching him sign language- he knows about 35 signs and says about 20 words. Absolutely loving signing with him and so glad I put the effort in to teach him.

Crazy thing is that I showed him a file of animals in little reader and when I showed the word for crocodile even before the picture he did the sign for crocodile. I thought it was a coincidence but he did it again before the picture came up. All I could think of was that I have used flashcards with him in the past and he has a crocodile book I read to him regularly but I have no idea how he could have possibly read it? 

I'm blown away by what little sponges babies are!

   



(aangeles)

I want to thank and congratulate you guys for making such a well-executed and user-friendly product! It was really easy to download/edit/organize the library files and it was a breeze to use the voice recorder and picture editor. I love being able to teach my baby Chinese in addition to English using LR! Also, the customer service is phenomenal! Thanks to the BrillKids team!

   



VANESSA (nadia0801)
Mom to a blessed baby, Cameron

I accidentally left Cammie's flashcards at our relative's house so I tried writing some words on the whiteboard for her to read. She recognized all the words I wrote! I guess we won't be needing the word-flashcards after-all... Ever-since she can recognize words, we used LR and printed materials from the computer, it's just now that we tried with our own hand-writing. I just want to share my joy.

   



JILLIAN (Jillpea)
Mum to incredible little boy
Sydney, Australia

Hi, I started my son at about 13 months. He's 20 months now and I hadn't really tested him up to this point. He did however read my husbands t-shirt the other day that had the word 'star' on it (and not a matching picture), with his speach developing he's also said the numbers 4 and 5 when he's seen them and often phonetically pronouces letters when we do an alphabet puzzle.

I also offer two or three choices of letters or words on his chalk board and ask him which one is the the word dog or bus etc. So he points at it and says the word if he can. I think it would be of benefit to your child if he or she was four years old. I don't think its ever too late. Even when they start school they expect the kids to not know how to read at all so anytime up to that point is still giving them a head start.

   



(Haha)

My boy is turning to 3 years old in 2 days' time. He was diagnosed with ASD rencently. He might not be as lucky as many little princes or princesses all over the world with the ability to speak properly at his age.

Little Reader has been a way to help us to teach him something that will benefit him in life - communication. Little Reader is not only an enjoyful program for kids but also a practical tool for special need children's education indeed. It brings hope to my family and I really want to see more and more mums and kids benefit from this program.




BRANDI (texaslady22)
English Teacher and Professional Mother
Sulphur Springs, TX

We started a Glenn Doman-inspired reading program with our son two years ago. I spent countless hours, at least two per night, handwriting cards. We bought cardstock in bulk and I could hardly stand the fumes from the permanent markers. Our son learned, but he went through the cards so quickly that we could hardly keep up with him!

When I heard of Little Reader, I was skeptical. Anything that sounds too good to be true probably is. However, that's not the case with Little Reader! I can program in whatever words I want and customize them to whatever we're learning about that week. I can show pictures. I can add sound and Encyclopedic Knowledge information. Most importantly, though, my son loves it.

It was difficult to keep my son's attention with paper flashcards, and playing peek-a-boo behind the words got boring for me and for him. With Little Reader, I can customize each lesson so that it's different every time. With the multimedia options, it's always interesting. He begs to do Little Reader several times a day. For me, Little Reader has been a priceless addition to our smart baby resources.

It has helped us to get so organized. And it has saved me countless hours of preparing materials - hours that are better spent doing fun stuff with my kids.

The resources available through the Little Reader community are invaluable! Thank You Little Reader!




KEVIN AND JENNIFER (jenniferloden)
Proud parents,
Commerce, GA

Our 19 month old absolutely loves this program. He enjoys anything that involves reading, numbers or the alphabet. He will sit in front of the screen and point to the letters in each
word as it appears on the screen.

He can already read about 100 words, and I believe Little
Reader had a lot to do with that. I can't say enough about how wonderful a program this is. I recommend it to everyone I know with young children. Thanks, Little Reader!

[Written 6 months after: Zachary still loves Little Reader! He is now reading on approximately a first grade level!]




JOAN (joan)
Mom of two

We absolutely love it! Little Reader is not just a flash card program like many others on the market. It allows you to do so much: you can show different picture for the same word, you can easily create your own category with pictures of your baby, record your own voice, add
videos... the possibilities are endless!

Not only that, there's a whole wealth of great downloads created by other moms that you can simply download and use! Both my 3 yr old son and 9 mo old daughter love it! Thank you!




JENNIFER (koala girl)
Loving mom of three

The timing of Little Reader's release couldn't have been more perfect. I had just finished reading Glen Doman's book "How to Teach Your Baby to Read" when I went on the internet looking for some more learning material.

I came across your website and couldn't be more pleased. I found everything I needed, and I stopped looking elsewhere since. Your site, forums and software had everything I was looking for - all in one place!

My daughter loves our learning sessions with Little Reader, and I find it is a great time for both of us. She gets excited about what she is learning and I get excited watching her. Thank you so much!

Little Reader has helped me and my little grandson so much - he is now saying more words after using the program.

Before using Little Reader, I used to pay for my grandson's speech therapist. These days, I have been using the program continuously and I must say that it has been so much more effective at teaching Jake, and so much less expensive, too.

In my opinion, Little Reader is fabulous; Jake and I really love it. And although I am still getting used to maximizing all the functions, I would just like to give a big THANK YOU to the creators of this program - you are helping a 50-year old granny like me teach her grandchild.




POOJA (piyu)
Full-time mom to Ishan

SIMPLY SUPERB! - I guess no other words can describe it better. You need to try it to believe it. We were a bit late in trying this out but still I can see results.

My son is crazy about balls and earlier he used to call every kind of ball (football, basketball, baseball, tennis ball etc) as just 'ball' and yesterday he called a basketball a 'basketball'. We have bought the version just 4 days back, can you believe it! It's worth every penny spent. Thank you BrillKids!!

Thanks to Little Reader, all my kids know their first 100 Russian words within 3 months! They answer simple questions and try to make sentences. It's a great tool for learning a new language!

My younger two enjoy their word flash for readers we use and love the animal categories too! The Little Reader library even has files useful to teach the older kids spelling. Thank you, BrillKids team, for producing a great software, all of my kids have benefited and will continue to.




Cheryll (sheeberi)
Proud Mommy of Twins,
Shasta, California, U.S.A.

I just found this website a month ago and have been using this program for my 9-month old twin girls for just 2 weeks now. And wow - I was so amazed at how it captured my daughters' attention so quickly. During lessons, they try to imitate the words and sounds they hear; they raise their hands and kick everytime they see and hear the baby on the screen doing the motions for hands up and kick! They always smile at me while doing it too, it seems like they're proud that they can do it! I thought that was just a coincidence at first, but they do the actions everytime. They are now just starting to learn how to control their finger to point.

Little Reader is really an excellent software program, and my twins really love it. They are sooo into it. Even when there's a big TV on other side playing cartoons, they'll ignore that as soon as I start playing the program. This is teaching by repetition, and what is so cool is that there's a lot to do by way of personalizing the lessons. You can customize, add and edit lessons you want your child to learn so they'll never get bored.

To all new mommies, this program is a must!

(I wish I found this earlier when my twins were still 4months old or younger but still, I'm so thankful I found it.)




AMANDA (heyblue41)
Pharmacist, and mom to Hayden and Kayla

My kids LOVE Little Reader - they just can't get enough of "the game!"

I noticed my son repeating words he heard only one time in Russian after we had used Little Reader. Now he knows how to say cat, dog and many other names of animals in about 5 different languages - the only exposure to most of these has been Little Reader.

I'd like to express my thanks to the Little Reader creators. You've made my life so much easier! I used to spend a lot of time making cards by hands. Now, with Little Reader, making them is so much fun.

My little daughter loves this great program. Every time I say "Reading Time" she grabs my hand and runs to the computer giggling. And when the lesson is over she gets really upset; I have to invent something really exciting to entice her from the computer.

Thanks to Forum community, I've learned a lot about early education and teaching methods. I do believe that all children are geniuses. Thank you to BrillKids for keeping up this confidence.




Bronwyn (Tanikit)
Very happy mother,
South Africa


My daughter (14 months old) and I absolutely love Little Reader. We have been using it almost continuously for three months now and my daughter is starting to read quite a few of the words she has seen. She laughs delightedly when she sees many of the pictures and we get tears if we stop after only 5 playlists and plenty of clapping for words she likes.

It's really easy to use and there is a lot of scope for adjusting things to suit our needs as far as pictures and pronunciation go. While I have home-made flashcards, I find that my daughter prefers the multisensory approach which I would not be able to find the time (or materials) to do without Little Reader (I do not have so many magazines or time to cut out and stick pictures) Thanks again!




CHRIS (carpe_diem)
Grandmother of fourteen
Manchester, United Kingdom

I thought I knew a lot about teaching reading to people of all ages, particularly since a was a follower of the Glenn Doman methods 40-ish years ago. That said, I have found Little Reader totally inspiring. It has taught me such a lot, and it is very addictive - it encourages the user to not only make use of the material provided in the program, but to create their own.

The kids really love Little Reader - from the beginning, they have wanted to suggest what I should include in their playlists - Joseph (2 1/2 yrs) said he wanted to have his rat (stuffed toy) in the 'family' playlist. He told me to take a picture of 'rat' and was delighted to see it next time he was going through the words. And this is exactly what is so great about the concept of Little Reader - the children have something that they can relate to - their OWN body, family, toys and pets - and it enables you to create personalized lessons to widen their horizons.

Also, the fact that people from all over the world - using any language, even dialects - can come together, share concerns and experiences, give one another support, and contribute to the whole at the BrillKids Forum is absolutely amazing: a sort of global togetherness worthy of a Noble Prize for Literary Software Development (and I DO mean Noble!)

I can honestly say that I don't know of ANY other software that is so versatile, comprehensive, meaningful and enjoyable as Little Reader.




ALISON (Mum)

We are all having a fun time using Little Reader - especially my little 3 year old 'little reader' who amazes us every single day with her delight in books and very rapid pace of learning new words!

She is so excited with the new dinosaur word game we made for her with her parents' voices in it; she just loves it when she hears Dad’s roaring sound effects!

Dad is also happy that he has been able to teach me more about computers. Wow, I never expected it to be so simple to create a sound file!




MARTINA (pupisek)

I love Little Reader for so many reasons! It is an unbeatable tool for creating and presenting multisensory presentations for my daughter in order to stimulate her right brain. The content library that is available for free download saves me so much time, too - instead of preparing so many lessons, I can just download and use them, giving me more quality time with my baby.  The support and shared experiences of all the BrillKids forum members are also priceless.

I highly recommend Little Reader and its community to every parent that cares about his/her children.

I found using Little Reader to be a very pleasant and rewarding experience. My daughter and I both love Little Reader!

We especially love that it can be used to teach any language - we are a multilingual family, and Little Reader helps us teach our daughter 3 languages at the same time!

Our whole family can also see that she is learning a lot from it. Although she cannot speak yet, she act out words and concepts she has learned from the program like "hands up", "point", "kick" etc. Thanks for making such a wonderful program for kids!




NIKKI (nhockaday)
Proud mother of Gabriel,
9 months old,
South Carolina, U.S.A.

My son and I absolutely love Little Reader! There are so many easy ways to customize it so that every lesson is new, fun and exciting - you can even create and share your own material!

Little Reader is also more interesting to my son than simply using paper flash cards; the software makes lesson preparation so convenient, I now spend more quality time with Gabriel!

I am delighted that my son is learning hundreds of words and having fun in the process - this program brings learning to read to a whole new level!




LENORE (lenore)
Mother of Baz,

I've been using Little Reader for a month now, and my 10-month old son LOVES it.  He smiles with delight every time we sit in front of the computer to listen to the words and see pictures. 

The free additional downloads from the forum also get better and better every time I log in.  The paintings and realistic pictures are fun for adults too.  It's very creative!




LEANNA (lawrencelb)
Mother of Annabelle and Nate, speech language pathologist
Missouri, U.S.A.

My 4 1/2 year old loves seeing the words and how they are linked to the images while my 10 month old just squeals with delight and laughs as the words and pictures flash before him!

There are so very many ways that Little Reader can be used to expand the learning opportunities of our youngsters - they can learn about concepts that they might never have the opportunity to be exposed to otherwise... in some ways, it can bring the world to them.




LORNA (Lola)
Jeorgia's Grandmother,

I use Little Reader with my granddaughter who is with us every weekend.  Her mom was afraid that I might be pressuring her to learn but she asks for it at times by asking to be seated on my lap while I am on the computer.  I have started on the action words, the animals, shapes and colors, flowers, food and she is just fascinated with them, with her eyes glued to the screen. 

She imitates the actions in the action words and loves the animals category specially the ones which have the animal sounds.  Since she is only 1 year old and is just beginning to talk, she surprised her lolo (grandfather) by saying 'cat' when she saw a cat.  I hope that this will be her introduction to not only reading but also learning new words.

I got my son started on Powerpoint flash cards, and to keep his attention, I added animation & sounds to the picture presentations.

Little Reader is the perfect solution, because it is so much easier to use & has so much more content & options – you can play material that it comes with by default & it allows you to add more lessons easily, too!

Now, I spend more time interacting with my baby rather than preparing his lessons!

My kids Alivia (2 years old) and Andreas (1 year old), are your biggest fans. 

I want to thank you for making such a wonderful product.  My children delight in learning with your software.  The ability to customize and create new categories is fantastic and innovative.  Whenever I turn Little Reader on,  My kids say and sign for more. 

They love to learn and we all love Little Reader and BrillKids software!

I really am very thankful to Little Reader - my kid is four years old, and before Little Reader he can hardly read any English words (we live in an ESL environment). Normal flash cards bore him and on the other hand, he's too attracted by the pictures and videos in other TV or computer learning systems to really learn the words.

But with Little Reader, he grasped at least a hundred words within a month - and he is still very interested in it. Plus, my 2 year old boy is also having fun learning together with his brother.

My daughter loves Little Reader! Whenever she sees me turn on the computer, she points to the Little Reader icon on the desktop and won't stop pointing until I open the program and show her the flash cards!

In our first week of using Little Reader, she has learned to name the parts of her face; since then, she has developed the habit of walking around the house and making animal noises, training herself how to speak. She is now able to relate the pictures she has seen on the program with the things she sees at home.

As a mother, I enjoy talking with the other parents in the forum where we share our ideas about teaching babies early, as well as swap flash card downloads.

Little Reader is a great program that gives my baby and I more quality time spent together enjoying the process of learning to read.

I have truly enjoyed using little reader and getting all my friends with kids excited about it as well.

This website and program have made me rethink home schooling my child (for the better) and has really gotten my entire family enthusiastic about early childhood development and education. BRAVO to you!

I would like to show my gratitude to the team who created Little Reader. It's such a brilliant invention and it helps parents like us to educate our children in a fun and creative way.

My parents are not staying with us - but whenever I use Little Reader to show my girl the photos and the voices of her grandpa and grandma, she always keeps on smilling and laughing. It warms my heart to know that Little Reader reminds her of her grandparents and the happy times that she spent with them.

The BrillKids team are also very supportive in solving my problems and I would like to extend a big applause for all of you! Little Reader is an excellent program and you all deserve my thanks!




ARTHI (AnuShyam)
Loving mother of Anu and Shyam, Infocomm Lecturer

I've been using Little Reader to teach my 2 children for a few months now, and I've found that Little Reader serves both my kids' different needs.

The younger one, aged 2, enjoys the Animal Categories where there is a real picture of the animal accompanied by the sounds they make. He can now recognise words even before the picture comes up! I think that's a big improvement. Wherever he sees the word lion or frog, he's able to voice out the word with the accompanied roar!

My elder one, aged 3.5, enjoys more complex catogories like Flags, Planets and 7 wonders of the world. She shows interest in reading even outside our Little Reader sessions, evident especially when we visit the library. She recalls the nice pictures in the 7 wonders and wants to get a book which shows more about them.

I am so happy that I found your website and started using Little Reader with my 2 boys. I have had the opportunity to compare your product with another similar one (claiming similar results), and I have proven that yours is better. Since Little Reader is always accessible, my boys want to use it all the time. And most importantly, you know they're not memorising when you can use the same process, using different words, or a different sequence, and they know the words. Before I used Little Reader, my 3-yr old would not sound out words. Now he's grasping every opportunity to read! Thanks for your product!

I love this program!!! It's such a wonderful tool to use in teaching my daughter to read. She is now almost 3 years old and this is a game to her.

She wants to go through the lessons over and over again. I found that she is not just learning to read, but also learning what certain words mean, which she wouldn't if we weren't going through these lessons.

I am thrilled that you have the music notes and numbers also.

Little Reader has helped me colossally! I was just starting to discover the Glen Doman method and this software takes the reading program to a whole new level.

It makes teaching my baby more organized and accessible. It also offers the very essential 'customization' option to adjust to each child. I personally like the user-interface, because it's simple and easy-to-use. And with all the downloadable content, I'd say it is the BEST program for infant learning today!

Just like what the other mothers here are saying, I too believe that your website is truly a Godsend.

I've been using Little Reader for 3 months now, and my baby and I make time to read through the lessons everyday. I've always seen our Little Reader lessons as bonding time with my baby. She truly loves seeing the flash cards on screen, and it amazes her each time to hear the sound effects and pronunciations, as well as see the words and colorful pictures.

Thank you very much for your website. More power!!!

Little Reader has guided me in teaching my 22month-old daugher without any force. As soon as I run the file, she starts jumping and making sounds, often crying out, "bee!" which means "A, B, C!"

It has also taught me so much on how to create more teaching material. It is a wonderful educational program and I highly recommend that all mothers and teachers use it to teach their children.




LINDA (nglinda)
Mommy of Claire & Chloe

I am a mommy of a pair of lovely twin girls and taking care of them has kept me very busy. Little Reader is really a Godsend for busy mommies like me who would like to nurture their children but could not find the time to prepare flash cards. My children love the animated and multisensory library files that BrillKids has created. I am also thankful to those who have selflessly shared files through the forum!

Kudos and congratulations on this wonderful program and initiative of the people who created it!
